Thursday, December 13, 2018 - 9:00am to 2:00pm
All of us experience conflict. At times, we lose sight of the fact that conflict is normal and there will be the potential for conflict. Since you can't prevent conflict, the most important thing is to learn how to handle or manage it in productive ways.

Showing respect for other people and not blaming them, enables people to work for mutual benefit.
